Chapter 345: That Bright Red Bullseye
I saw the little bully, carrying the monument of merit and virtue on his back, striding forward with great difficulty, but every time he took a step, his body grew a circle. One step, two steps, three steps, it was not obvious at first, but when it walked around and returned to Ye Zan, its body that was originally the size of a palm had grown to the size of a washbasin.
Ye Zan was quite surprised, and turned to Elder Ta and asked, "Could it be that the weight on the back can make it grow faster?"
"Uh, well, it should be." Ta Lao didn't seem to be very clear about it, so his answer seemed rather perfunctory.
However, the next moment, Ye Zan's attention fell on the merit tablet on Xiao Ba's lower back. Although the merit tablet was shrunk to a very small size, the numbers on it can still be seen clearly. But seeing this, Ye Zan was taken aback, and exclaimed: "What do you mean, why have my merits decreased!"
It turned out that the number on the merit tablet had changed from over seven million to over six million. In the blink of an eye, nearly one million merit points were lost. Is there any reason for this? Is this merit value a bubble!
"Well, look, hasn't this bully grown up?" Elder Ta said, pointing at the little bully.
"You're trying to trick me! Did I say that you want this little thing to grow up quickly? Besides, with a merit value of one million, just let it grow so little, is merit so worthless? "Ye Zan seemed a little out of breath, after all, it was worth a million merit points. If it is said that the power of the merit monument is completely reflected by the merit value, then this is equivalent to cutting off nearly one-seventh of the power of the merit monument.
"Don't worry, little friend, isn't the growth of this underlord a good thing for you?" Ta Lao hurriedly persuaded.
"What a fart! One million merits only make it grow a little bit, my remaining merits are enough..." Ye Zan glanced at the merit monument again, then completely shut up and stopped talking. up. Originally, in just a few words, the number on the merit tablet changed again, and the one million merit value disappeared again.
And Ta Lao also noticed this, and the expression on his face became extremely awkward, and said: "Well, my little friend, forgive me, I didn't expect this situation, but I just heard that it would be of great harm to Baxia to carry the monument of merit and virtue." benefit, so..."
Ye Zan didn't give Ta Lao any response, but pinched the formula expressionlessly, trying to take the merit tablet off Baxia's body. However, no matter how many times he picked up the formula, the monument of merit and virtue seemed to have taken root on Baxia's back, and he had no intention of leaving at all.
"Little friend, don't worry, little friend, look at the stele of merit, does the number no longer change!" Ta Lao suddenly shouted to Ye Zan in surprise. In fact, he was also a little embarrassed. He was just kind enough to offer a suggestion, but he didn't expect that there would be such a change in the combination of Hegemony and Merit Monument.
In fact, Ye Zan had already noticed the changes in the monument of merit and virtue without the old man reminding him. Originally, the number on the merit tablet was constantly changing and decreasing. Although it is not completely fixed now, the speed has become much slower. However, at this time, the number on the stele of merits and virtues is only about three million, which is almost half of what it was before.
"That is to say, I have to share half of my merits with this guy?" Although Ye Zan was a bit hard to accept, but at least half of it was left for him, at least it wasn't the worst result.
At this time, Xiaobaxia was already much bigger, even if Ye Zan rode on it, it wouldn't look too discordant.
"Angang!" Xiao Baxia was quite happy, and ran to Ye Zan's in a few steps. Since it has grown in size, it can reach Ye Zan's face as soon as it stretches its neck, sticking out its tongue like a dog and licking it.
Ye Zan quickly raised his hand to block the enthusiasm of Xiaobaxia, and said helplessly, "Okay, as long as you are happy, it's just some merit, I just earn more..."
"Little friend, you see that there are so many people waiting for you outside, so don't waste any more time here." Elder Ta said with a guilty conscience. He really didn't want to deal with Ye Zan anymore, at least for now, he didn't want to spend even one more second with this kid, for fear that something would happen again.
Ye Zan glanced at Mr. Ta, but he didn't hold on to this matter any longer, and said, "Well, no matter what, I still have to thank Mr. Ta."
Although there were some twists and turns, at least Ye Zan earned a merit tablet. Originally, he didn't know that he had so much merit, let alone how to use it, but now at least he has a way to use it. Although half of the merits were swallowed up by Xiaobaxia, it can be considered that the fat water has not flowed into the field of outsiders.
"Haha, no thanks, it's all a matter of course." Ta Lao said with a smile, then raised his hand and waved towards the void, and the surrounding barrier immediately dissipated.
And as the barrier dissipated, the figures of Ye Zan and Ta Lao appeared in front of everyone again. At this time, some of the people were still discussing and guessing about the things inside the barrier, while others had already focused on those magic weapons. However, after the barrier dissipated, almost everyone's eyes immediately focused on Ye Zan and Ta Lao.
"I'm sorry to have kept fellow daoists waiting for so long." Ye Zan said to everyone, cupping his hands.
"Hehe, fellow Daoist Ye, you're being polite." Everyone clasped their hands and responded, their eyes were full of curiosity, but they couldn't open their mouths to ask Ye Zan.
Who would not be curious about the legacy of Taoist ancestors?
Sensing everyone's curiosity, Ye Zan turned his head and glanced at Ta Lao, saying, "Look, it's all the trouble you caused, and you're pushing back and forth to ask for a magic weapon."
"Hmm!" Old Ta touched Ye Zan's gaze, and immediately turned away in embarrassment, raised his hand to cover his face and coughed lightly, attracting everyone's attention, and said, "Before, the old man You have already said that, since you have come here, according to the rules here, each person can choose a magic weapon on this treasure shelf. As for the order of selection, it is naturally according to when you are on the eighth floor. Yes, it depends on the final climbing height. Well, without further ado, you can make your own choice."
"If this rule is followed, then the first person to choose the magic weapon must be Fellow Daoist Ye." Cheng Daqi looked at Ye Zan with curiosity, but more gratitude. If Ye Zan hadn't made a move before, he would have died in Liran's hands. In addition to the time on the eighth floor, in such a short period of time, he was saved twice by Ye Zan.
But at this moment, there was suddenly a voice of opposition from the other side of the stairs, and several chaotic voices said loudly: "No, this senior, please don't be deceived by him, such a cruel and merciless person is simply He is more vicious than that demonic person, please kill him, senior, and make the decision for us!"
Hearing these words, everyone didn't have to look back to know who was speaking. The only ones who could hate Ye Zan so much were those members of the North Pole Sword Sect who had been demoted.
It turned out that these members of the Arctic Sword Sect saw that everyone's climbing speed increased suddenly, and they also knew that there must be some changes in those steps. So, after everyone left, they felt that their injuries had stabilized, so they decided to try going up the stairs again.
Those stairs on the eighth floor, without that invisible pressure, naturally became pure stairs, but the distance is still so high. As for the members of the Arctic Sword Sect, after all, their cultivation bases have been greatly damaged, and it is still not easy to climb these stairs, which has led to the current situation.
Just climbed up.
As soon as they came up, the members of the Arctic Sword Sect heard the last two words of Ta Lao and Cheng Daqi. If there is no Ta Lao, the North Pole Sword Sect would talk too much. However, due to Ta Lao's existence, several of them thought that there was someone who could make decisions for themselves.
This time, the members of the Arctic Sword Sect finally had the confidence to accuse Ye Zan of his evil deeds and expose Ye Zan's true colors.
"How dare you come up here." Ye Zan looked at the members of the Arctic Sword Sect and said.
"Why don't you dare? Since ancient times, evil has prevailed over righteousness. You never thought of it. There are my righteous seniors here, who will definitely uphold justice for us!" A member of the Arctic Sword Sect stood up, pointing at Ye Zan with righteous indignation. .
Ye Zan turned his head to look at Mr. Ta, and asked a little funny: "Mr. Ta, you see that they have been wronged. Do you want to do justice for them?"
"I don't have that much time to spare!" Ta Lao didn't cooperate at all, and waved directly at the members of the Arctic Sword Sect, and they disappeared immediately.
"What did you do to them?" Ye Zan asked.
"It's just thrown out, do you still want the old man to kill them for you?" Old Ta said angrily.
"Oh, that doesn't matter, just throw it out." Ye Zan said indifferently.
Outside the Arctic Fairy Palace, several figures suddenly appeared in the air, screaming hoarsely and falling to the ground. These few people were those from the North Pole Sword Sect thrown out by Ta Lao, including Zhao Jingsheng who was thrown on the eighth floor.
Ta always didn't intend to do anything to the members of the Arctic Sword Sect, but he ignored a very important issue. If it was a normal Golden Core Grandmaster, even if he appeared in midair, there would be no problem, at most he would be startled at first.
But the members of the Arctic Sword Sect have already lost their cultivation, not to mention the Yujian flying into the air, and they can't even use the most common light-weight method. After several people appeared in mid-air, they were in free fall, stretching their arms and kicking their legs screaming, all falling towards the ground in unison.
This is the Arctic Ice Field, and the ice on the ground is as hard as steel. Is it okay to fall from a high altitude? Of course, even if it is not an ice field, even if it is a grassland where cattle and sheep are low in the wind, falling from a high altitude is still dead.
"Crack, crack..."
With the sound of a few heavy landings, the extremely shrill screams also stopped abruptly. On the thick ice, several people fell to pieces, and there was no human appearance. The blood spread on the ice, but it was quickly frozen. From a high altitude, it looked like a striking bullseye painted on an archery target.
Back to Ye Zan.
The members of the Arctic Sword Sect were thrown out, and no one bothered everyone to choose the magic weapon anymore. As the first person selected, Ye Zan had no intention of giving up this opportunity even though he already had a stele of merit. Even if you don't need the magic weapon, you can just take it back and give it to the people in the sect.
Although the current Yuqing Sect is a second-rate sect, it also has a lot more money. However, there are many things that cannot be bought with money, and magic weapon is one of them.
How pitiful Yu Qingzong was, when he came to the Arctic Immortal Palace, he even went to snatch the magic weapon from Taoist Gui Xiao first to use it. If it wasn't for the Moyu Nine Star Bamboo, Mo Rushi and Ye Zan, I'm afraid they would really have no choice but to escape when they encountered the three primordial spirits of the mysterious force.
As for the selection, Ye Zan had already scanned all the magic weapons when he first came up, and he had already picked out the one he wanted, or the best magic weapon among them.
Therefore, Ye Zan didn't hesitate at all, and walked directly to the treasure shelf on one side, and reached out to take down a magic weapon on it. This magic weapon is a small drum named Nine Heavens Shocking Thunder Drum, but in fact it is not the real body of this magic weapon, but a counterfeit made by Taoist Xuanzhen.
Although, Ye Zan didn't know the origin of the original Nine Heavens Thunder Drum, nor did he know how powerful this fake would be. However, at least according to the information that Xuanyuan said, he can be sure that there is nothing wrong with the Nine Heavens Thunder Drum, and it can be regarded as a sincere work of Xuanzhen Taoist.
Since this is the case, then this fake of the Nine Heavens Shocking Thunder Drum has the appearance of a top-grade magic weapon, so it probably won't be much worse.
Ye Zan collected the Nine Heavens Shocking Thunder Drum, turned around and said to everyone: "I have finished the selection, fellow Taoists please!"
The one who is ranked second to choose the magic weapon will naturally become a master. After such a long time, Cheng Daqi had already taken a fancy to a magic weapon, so when it was his turn, he immediately walked towards the favorite magic weapon.
However, just as Cheng Daqi stretched out his hand to get the magic weapon, Ye Zan suddenly coughed twice.
Dude, you're out of luck! Seeing the magic weapon that Cheng Daqi wanted to take, Ye Zan couldn't help shouting inwardly.
The magic weapon that Cheng Daqi wanted to take was a bracelet that looked like jade, without any decorative patterns on it. Judging from the mana fluctuations emitted by the magic weapon, it can be regarded as a magic weapon close to the best. However, Ye Zan knew that that magic weapon had no power at all, it was purely used to bluff people.
Hearing Ye Zan's voice, Cheng Daqi couldn't help being stunned. You know, people who practice Taoism don't really have any throat discomfort, so this light cough often has other meanings, such as attracting attention, such as reminding, such as covering up embarrassment.
But here, Cheng Daqi immediately understood that Ye Zan was reminding himself. But, do you want to believe it? After all, everyone has just come here, so Ye Zan is special because he knows what these magic weapons are all about? Or, maybe Ye Zan has selfish intentions, he doesn't want others to choose this magic weapon, but wants to keep it for someone behind?
However, thinking of Ye Zan saving himself twice in a row, Cheng Daqi didn't care what Ye Zan was up to, even if it was the latter possibility. So, he withdrew his hand and turned to another magic weapon that he had noticed. This time, he slowly reached out his hand, but he didn't hear anything from Ye Zan on the way, so he finally took the magic weapon down. (To be continued.)
